AccuWeather.com is calling for rain and drizzle Tuesday and Wednesday, with temperatures dropping to a bitter 19 degrees by early Thanksgiving morning.

Local meteorologist "Eric the Red" says the models are indicating precipitation is likely, but whether it freezes depends on whether a strong high pressure system develops over Greenland, blocking the cold polar air and sending it south across the eastern U.S.

"If there was a high to our north for this storm, we'd be staring at a rare Thanksgiving snowstorm here, but without the high there's nothing to lock the cold air in place," Eric writes. "Nevertheless, it's something we'll have to keep a close eye on."

Even a cold rain could "absolutely destroy" what are already chaotic days for travelers, Eric suggests.
